In today's briefing:

1.  We noted on quite a few occasions about market stabilization scheme.  Let's have a quick recap of what it is.

2.  Remember the Krishnaiah murder?  He was an IAS officer of Bihar cadre.  He was lynched by a mob back in 1994.  Finally the judgment day has come for the perpetrators of the crime.

3.  In the ongoing standoff between the pro-democracy protesters and the military junta in Myanmar, UN had mediated through an envoy.  Can you name him?

4.  Reliance now has company.  From the cash and carry trade in being targeted.

5.  Some stats/facts about world's richest people.

6.  Read "The Age of Turbulence"?  Looks like we all need to.  Some good phrases to learn by the way.

7.  What is the so called space tourism about?  Promoted by Richard Branson & Co?

8.  Who is the Secretary General of the UN World Tourism Organization?

9.  North Korea finally relents?  I doubt it.  Renegades rarely come straight.

10.  Ramanujan Prize announced.  It goes to Ben Green.

11.  What is the standard kilogram?

12.  It is time for the Irani Cup!! 

13.  How do osmotic power plants produce power?

That's all for today.  Happy reading.
